Announcing Edit Comment for Code Warrior: From: Larry Gerndt email: jazmann@shell.portal.com Do you use source control, such as Projector, SourceSafe, Source Manager, or SourceServer? If so, do you use Code Warrior as your editor? If you answered yes to both, you will definitely want this utility, so read on: (An equivalent version of this program is available for Think environments) What it does: This add-on to the Think or Code Warrior environments adds an "Edit Comment..." item to the Edit menu. When you choose it, it will present an editing window which shows the revision comment of the front window's file (and other source control information). Of course, the file must be under source control (Projector , SourceServer, or SourceSafe). These programs accomplish their source control by attaching a resource of type 'ckid' to each file they control. The information in the 'ckid' resource includes the current revision number and a comment about the changes in that revision. This is what Edit Comment edits. It extracts the comment text from the 'ckid' of the file you're currently editing and puts up an editing window that shows the current revision and displays the comment text in an editable field. (This demo version doesn't save changes, but is otherwise fully functional) Having Edit Comment makes it possible (and easy) to create your comments about the changes you make to a file AS YOU'RE MAKING THEM, without switching to another app. And these comments go right into the 'ckid', meaning the file is ready to check in, so you don't have to enter any comment during checkin. The result: accurate comments, no pre-check-in diffing to recall what you did to the file, and no comment entering needed at check in time.
